Thank you Tripps for a fun and enlightening hour cc: @gradontripp @megtripp #sm141
@gradontripp the goal of integrated marketing & #socbiz is accomplish goals more efficiently & effectively - tools regardless #sm141
@brightmatrix @gradontripp - I'm a big fan of @pinterest - if a pic worth 1K words, ... (look at importance of blog pic on openrate) #sm141
@gradontripp people havent gotten past shiny object syndrome since cavemen, not sure we will anytime soon #sm141
Yes RT @gradontripp: A theme: Culture, Training, and Communication are keys to scaling social through the enterprise. agree? #sm141
+1 RT @megtripp: "social media" can be nebulous, because they see it as a set of platforms, not another place for existing functions. #sm141
Regarding budget: $ goes to places where things need to be done. If social is the tool to get you there, dept doesnt matter #sm141
@Marc_Meyer smart move, any initiative should contain a risk mitigation strategy (regardless of social) #sm141
Ignorance in risks mostly. People hear so much about the #fail & everyone but Marketing misses benefits #sm141
@gradontripp @megtripp some may say Comcast, although their service always stunk (forgot hash) #sm141
Ignorance RT @gradontripp: Q3: What obstacles must be overcome within co.s to see social spread as both a function & benefit? #sm141
I've said it before, I believe the biggest innovation in social will come from HR - more here http://t.co/BzSX925Y #sm141
I would hope others would see success of being socially competent, and flow down thru org would be easier #utopia #sm141
Imagine what @ford could do if it could develop its biggest advocates (their employees) into social biz stars #sm141

Did I miss Q3? I still live in a process structured world, even though I like to play in social chaos #sm141

Agree RT @gradontripp: thats similar to how most orgs dont train their support staff to have proper ownership of customer issues. #sm141
@DRMGListens and I bet there is a socially competent leader at the helm of those org.'s - they have had their "AHA moment" #sm141
jasonkonopinski @Marc_Meyer @gradontripp giggity, giggity #sm141
And do not get me wrong, I am all for org.'s creating a COE (Center of Excellence) for social learning #sm141
Most org.'s don't realize the need to develop social competency and skills of community mgmt #sm141
@megtripp if the real question is about social competency, then that is a different question #sm141
Most org.'s don't realize the need to develop social competency and skills of community mgmt #sm141
@megtripp your strategy should include whatever tools get you to your goal #sm141
If #custserv "owns" your phone channel, does Sales and Marketing need to be trained on how to use and ask permission? #sm141
@megtripp strategy shouldnt be based on a tool. You dont build a phone strategy #sm141
.@gradontripp community mgmt very valuable discipline for any retention focus. similar to process mgmt & project mgmt disciplines #sm141
@gradontripp I think the discipline of community management is incredibly valuable to retention focus, similar to other disciplines #sm141
You are gonna get me mad with the ownership question #hulksmash #sm141
@AppleBoxStudios exactly, culture #sm141
@gradontripp @megtripp - non-narrative data gets lost on individuals, the stories stay #sm141
@gradontripp @megtripp - non-narrative data gets lost on individuals, the stories stay #sm141
.@gradontripp yes & no. Ultimate goals of org. is acquisition and retention - need to break down silly silos #sm141
@AppleBoxStudios most of the carnage is culture related, not social related - ex. papa ginos & dominos #sm141

@brightmatrix by opening up social to whole org. transparency is a natural by product. #sm141
A2: biggest decentralize "myth" - irresponsibility of associates on social channels. They are adults, treat them so #sm141
A2: biggest decentralize "myth" - irresponsibility of associates on social channels. They are adults, treat them so #sm141
A2: biggest risk to decentralization is brand voice. Examples of 2 gr8 #custserv co's Tiffany & Co and Zappos - very diff voices #sm141
A1: Customer level - builds trust by creating transparency into org #sm141
.@gradontripp I think SAP, Dell & Zappos get it - built into their cultures #sm141
A1: Company level: why not leverage all the relationships in your org. for recruiting, brand recog, SEO, etc... #sm141
A2: Dept level: social tools make iteration faster and simpler. Real time collaboration #sm141
A1: Individual level - connecting your org to the best minds IN THE WORLD (who typically create SME content) re; their interests #sm141
A1: Individual level: Social tools are awesome personal dev tools. You can connect to the smartest ppl in world #sm141

A1: Social media is tool, a incredibly useful tool. Its like saying only carpenters can use hammers #sm141
Gr8 ?, tough in 140 RT @gradontripp: Q1: What are the benefits of spreading social through the enterprise vs. keeping it centralized? #sm141

Understand/get social yourself first RT @megfowler: ONE piece of advice in getting started w/soc #custserv, what would it be? #sm109
@megfowler dont forget so much of inbound social is positive, who need your attention even more. Its not all bad & squeaky #sm109

Ironic: this twitterchat got a troll - (a bin Laden one) heh #sm109

@neicolec we should meet in person one, debate which are x-func competencies and dept centric :) #sm109
I wondering it any other #custserv org. are creating & curating for SoMe too? Makes custserv proactive #sm109
I wondering it any other #custserv org. are creating & curating for SoMe too? Makes custserv proactive #sm109
@neicolec Then UX should be educating rest of org how to think cust centric, leaving that to 1 place is more risky than SoMe #sm109
Then probably not interested in actual solution, may be a troll RT @megfowler: What if a customer wont take it offline? #sm109
@neicolec I would flip it. SM methodologies should be part of how UX team works #sm109
@megfowler yes have lost noodle, luckily most of my noodles have been private :) #sm109

@megfowler someone's feelings cannot be wrong, yes maybe irrational. Need to ask more questions, its about mutual understand #sm109

@J_Fuji your thinking about leprichans #sm109
No but their feelings are real RT @megfowler: next question now. Q2: Is the customer always right in social media? #sm109
No but their feelings are real RT @megfowler: next question now. Q2: Is the customer always right in social media? #sm109
@J_Fuji complainers aren't trolls, they are almost heroes in voice of the customer world - trolls are just miserable #sm109
@neicolec need more understanding, because most everything can fit under UX with that methodology #sm109
Agree - we use RACI RT @NealWiser: @mpace101 Maybe not an "owner," but there must be unified guidelines and messaging. #sm109
@NealWiser not sure social needs an "owner", I think its a x-func discipline like process mgmt or communication mgmt #sm109

@megfowler doesnt need to be PR or #Custserv handle, customers see business holistic, not by dept - coordination key #sm109
You can acknowledge trolls, but dont feed the trolls (big diff) #sm109
@megfowler @J_Fuji my take on how to measure trust http://thepaceofservice.com/?p=16 #sm109
IMOHO - PR should not be handling customer service issues, inquiries or acknowledgement - save for the pro's #sm109

based on customer expectations RT @megfowler: What does customer satisfaction over SM channels look like?#sm109 #sm109
Our evidence over past yr is social support C-Sat higher, easier expectations #sm109
Should not change based on channel, its still same customer regardless of phone, chat or social - C-Sat absolute bar #sm109

@megfowler a challenger is much better than a "Yes Man", "Adversary" or a "Fence sitter" - its about the relationship #sm94

@AppleBoxStudios yes sometimes they do :) #sm94
Conflict is also a gr8 oppty to turn a challenger into a champion #sm94
Conflict is a form of feedback. Feedback is a gift, what you choose to do w/it is another story #sm94

RT @lizscherer: @megfowler Its not important for the cust to "be" right but to "feel" right. conflict mgement solves this paradigm #sm94
The customer always has a perception or feeling (feelings are not wrong/right) RT @megfowler: Is the customer always right? #sm94
Conflicts are an incredibly great case for infusing whole org. w/social. You need to understand social to address socially #sm94
BINGO RT @carissao: Its important that stakeholders from key functions are prepared to act BEFORE a conflict happens. #sm94

Sometimes moving things to "less public forum" like a support community is a great, not completely public place to address #sm94
